dear @Kurra

I know how it feels to be homeless and how hard it is.  After my mother abused me I had no option but to call DVO RESPECT and get into a Domestic Violence refuge. They are very good and very caring.  Actually, I just went to Centrelink and they arranged for me to speak to a Social worker on the phone and they helped me get my belongings and get safely to a refuge. The refuges here in Australia are very good.  Some of the buildings are new and they even have wi-fi.  I was able to save and not pay any money for 4 weeks and save for a place.  

If u call lifeline which is 131114 (free from any mobile), they can give you a list of referalls and DVO respect's 24/7 phone number.  They offer counselling too.  

Btw I made some lovely friends in refuge too.

All the best and take good care of yourself sweetie.  You deserve to be happy and feel loved.  Hugs and God bless you.
